Paid to Bigdaddy, examplens and trofo.  Anyone know who sojourner is on here?

Great pool for us Croats! 3 winners, and examplens is from Serbia I think so 4 from the Balkans.

Address sent, thanks for hosting and see you in the next season. Hopefully we can have a deal like for the PL one, including Sportsbet is a great addition to the competition.

Haven't really asked anyone yet but I'll try and get one. Hhampuz mentioned he'll try speak to Roobet. I'll mention it to Sportsbet as well but I'll probably wait until the PL one starts and we see how many users sign up. It probably won't be anywhere as big as the Premier League one though as the CL seems to be a bit smaller in interest, though not many people have signed up to the PL one yet either. I'm hoping people are just trying to get some funds together or are going to leave it late to join. Hopefully both pools will grow in numbers over the years.

Yea its really amazing because I have few friends on social media mostly from Croats and Serbia and they are very good in soccer and tennis mostly they give tips these works very good for me and few other peoples of our group these guys have some good minds in sports gamebling.

Tell them to join the pools! If people think they're good at predictions then these are the perfect games to play and you're not going to bankrupt yourself playing them like you can with regular gambling. Spread the word! I'm sure there's lot of people who would like to join but they just don't know about the pool.

Hey men send your addy, it is not nice to keep people waiting to pay money

I sent it yesterday through DM, hillarious must have missed it or he saw it after paying you guys.

Roobet does not have sports betting so I doubt they will be interested. No harm in trying though Sportsbet already has a huge one, but even the free bets deal would be great - keeps it more interesting.

How many people have currently signed up for the PL one? I thought we'll have at least 20-30 people by now.

[leea-1334]

I initially decided not to continue spending money in the pools,,, I actually was in Top 5 for CL for a while but dropped out, and remember the world cup one? I did well for a while too and always end up slipping. Like my team Spurs hehe.

Anyway, count me in for EPL and CL pools again. I already paid EPL one right hilarious? GO SPURS.

Roobet were the first to make an offer for the Premier League pool. I think they offered 0.15 as well but Sportsbet threw in a lot of other extras which was too good to turn down.

Sadly only about ten. I also thought we'd have 30 by now. Hopefully last year's users just haven't got the memo about the new pool. I haven't messaged them about it so maybe they're unaware. Keep spreading the word as I'm sure there are lots of users who would love to play. Don't want people messaging me after the season starts saying they would have joined like I got a handful doing last year. There'a a little under 20 days till the season starts and that will quickly creep up on us.

But I like giving someone else custody of my coins every now and then =p JK sent to hilarious, I think he missed my earlier PM. I've asked theymos nicely twice to change my nick on this forum (as it originally was meant as a nonsense account I thought I'd never use beyond a few days or so, but got bit by the bug!) so one day the confusion will be no more! Or maybe now more people know me as buway I might as well keep it.

[big_daddy]

Payment recieved  
That’s why bitcoin is falling hahaha

Will re-invest that in CL, PL, SerieA and LaLiga pool  

[buwaytress]

I'm putting everything back, split evenly, into Liverpool winning CL and EPL. Fairlay's got decent odds still at Fairlay (2.7 for Liverpool EPL and 6.96 for Liverpool UCL).

Anyone want to give me better odds? I'll take a market from you there;)

I'm looking for the same but with City to win the PL and CL. Maybe even the treble or quadruple. Harder to do these days though when managers seemingly field weaker teams for the domestic non-PL cups. Had a bet on Liverpool to win everything last season but they went and threw it away fielding schoolkids in the cups.

[cryptofrka]

Hey fellas, will there be a predictor organized for this season's CL as well?

The qualifiers are almost done, the draw is in a week or so and the first group matches start in less than a month. If we plan to play, it might be a good time to start organizing something.
Sorry if there's a thread for that already - I did not manage to find it.

nice bump here 
as far as I know, not yet started or discussed. but I think hilariousetc will announce a new season soon. We have one month until the next CL season starts and it is enough time, but maybe better to start earlier in order to gather a larger number of participants.
I guess here will be same join pot as on PL pool, 0.0045 BTC, right?

[Trofo]

There will be for sure. hilarious already confirmed it one of the other threads so no worries on that front. I am hoping for another good season for us Croatians. Really strange how we perform well in CL predictor and then get our asses kicked badly in Premier League predictor. That goes double for you with your fancy PL knowledge
I at least admit that I am better in CL.

Any updates? There only 2 weeks left until start of group stage, so I think it would be right time to open sign up for the pool. If we will start late, it would be too difficult to get decent number of players.

I'll get it set up over the weekend. There's usually not as many people sign up for this tournament anyway but a week will be enough time to get the usual suspects involved. Does anyone have a price point for entry? Was thinking 0.003 which is a little over £25 right now. Does anyone want to sponsor the pool to boost the pot a little as well?

I agree with 0.003 entry fee. It more affordable for most users, I guess should not be a problem for most of us.
About new sponsors, it's fair to be offered first to Sportsbet, it already involves them in a Premier League pool. Although I noticed that Bitsler also have sports betting, they running the signature campaign again to promote it. Maybe this way of promotions can be interested to them.

edit: if I don’t follow the entire course of events here, count me for sure.

[cryptofrka]

I'm also in, 0.003 fee is ok for me too. Hopefully we'll get at least 15 people.

Regarding sponsorship, didn't you mention Roobet was interested in sponsoring the PL pool? Maybe they'd be willing to boost this one a bit instead

[big_daddy]

Count me in! I have to defend last year's result 
-> where am I sending the entry fee please?

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

I suck in other leagues except EPL but I think I will join this pool too in this season. May be this will enable me to watch some none IPL match to get to know better about Spanish, German, Italian football. Consider me in.

You were the winner?
I think hilarious is still working working on the entry price so no address yet of course.

Yes, I won the last one, beeng good during the group stage I’ve accumulated lot of points, than I sucked predicting the play-offs but still won the pool

I just hope that we can have a bigger pool that the last one

[cryptofrka]

Any news about this pool? The first games are scheduled on Tuesday. That's less than a week from today.

A few of us agreed on a 0.003 entry fee, we still have time to advertise it a little bit and try to bring a few more players. I think we had ~15 last year.
